Course description
This course is no longer offered. If you are required to complete this course as part of your program, please enrol in PXMH7107 for the `Art Therapy¿ Field of Study and PXMH7111 for the `Psychotherapy¿ Field of Study. Students in the `Standard¿ Field of Study can enrol in either of these two course offerings. This course enables students to apply the knowledge and skills developed during PXMH7023 and PXMH7024 courses in a mental health practice environment. Students will undertake 200 mental health practice hours; of which a minimum of 50 take the form of providing direct mental health services to clients. The remaining hours may be completed by observation of the practice of more experienced mental health practitioners, participation in team meetings and clinical case discussions and record keeping. Students receive a minimum of 10 hours of clinical supervision from an approved on-site supervisor while completing their practice hours. The 200 practice hours may be undertaken in the student's workplace or other workplace subject to access to appropriate practicum experience and suitable supervision arrangements.
